Surrogacy
The day you meet your child, brought closer.
How does a concierge surrogacy journey work?
With Doveras, your surrogacy journey begins with a personal search across a broad network of vetted agencies, and surrogate candidates presented within the first month. We review every candidate against your clinic’s medical criteria, oversee matching and medical clearance, and often remain beside your family all the way to birth.
The timeline
How long does surrogacy take?
Without Doveras, a surrogacy journey commonly takes two to four years from the first commitment to meeting your child. Much of that time is spent waiting, and much of the waiting can be avoided.

Why it takes time
Why does a surrogacy journey often take so long?
I.
An early commitment
Without a concierge, your journey begins with a commitment to a single agency, and with it, that agency’s recruitment and waitlist timeline.
II.
Unfamiliar territory
Clinic requirements, insurance timelines, fees, and legal considerations are unfamiliar terrain for even the most experienced families, and the questions that matter most are rarely obvious at the outset.
III.
Beyond the match
The industry often markets success by time to match. Yet medical clearance, legal steps, and transfer can add many months. We guide every step after the match to help you avoid unnecessary and common delays.
IV.
The unexpected
Surprises are human and part of every journey. We anticipate common hurdles and stay beside you through whatever arrives.
Our philosophy
We measure our work by the day you meet your child, not the day you match.
